English Night Poster



My dear friend Katie is currently teaching English at a University in Nantes, France. She needed a poster to promote an 'English Night' she is having at a pub there for the students to practice their English conversation skills. This was an incredibly fun poster to design and it's always great to do something for a friend. I wanted a youthful look that represented England and the US in a unique yet historical light. Rather than reference the modern day state of the countries (which, especially in America's case is not looked upon favorably in France) I wanted to harken back to the glorious days when America and England were both dashing, valiant countries filled with loyal citizens with positive, idealist outlooks toward the future. She said the turnout was impressive and that the poster was well liked by all of the students so all in all it was a very pleasant as well as successful endeavor.
